Adds support for surrounding text in visual/visual-line/visual-block mode by re-using the `AddSurrounds` operator. There is no default binding though so the user must follow the instructions to enable it. Note that the behaviour varies slightly for the visual-line and visual-block modes. In visual-line mode the surrounds are placed on separate lines (the vim-surround extension also indents the contents but I opted not to as that behaviour is less important with the use of code formatters). In visual-block mode each of the selected regions is surrounded and the cursor returns to the beginning of the selection after the action is complete. Release Notes: - Added action to surround text in visual mode (no default binding). Fixes #13122 |

This contains the code for Zed's Vim emulation mode.
Vim mode in Zed is supposed to primarily "do what you expect": it mostly tries to copy vim exactly, but will use Zed-specific functionality when available to make things smoother. This means Zed will never be 100% vim compatible, but should be 100% vim familiar!
The backlog is maintained in the #vim channel notes.
Testing against Neovim
If you are making a change to make Zed's behaviour more closely match vim/nvim, you can create a test using the NeovimBackedTestContext.
For example, the following test checks that Zed and Neovim have the same behaviour when running * in visual mode:
#[gpui::test]
async fn test_visual_star_hash(cx: &mut gpui::TestAppContext) {
let mut cx = NeovimBackedTestContext::new(cx).await;
cx.set_shared_state("ˇa.c. abcd a.c. abcd").await;
cx.simulate_shared_keystrokes(["v", "3", "l", "*"]).await;
cx.assert_shared_state("a.c. abcd ˇa.c. abcd").await;
}
To keep CI runs fast, by default the neovim tests use a cached JSON file that records what neovim did (see crates/vim/test_data), but while developing this test you'll need to run it with the neovim flag enabled:
cargo test -p vim --features neovim test_visual_star_hash
This will run your keystrokes against a headless neovim and cache the results in the test_data directory.
Testing zed-only behaviour
Zed does more than vim/neovim in their default modes. The VimTestContext can be used instead. This lets you test integration with the language server and other parts of zed's UI that don't have a NeoVim equivalent.
